Songfacts®:

  • Running to 6 minutes 8 seconds, the ninth track on the 2001 Fires At Midnight album is another entirely original composition with Ritchie Blackmore supplying the music and Candice Night the lyrics; it is introduced with some fine Spanish guitar, then a soft vocal from Candice before exploding. The Faerie Queen is really in her element with this uptempo Gothic ballad, which sees some fiery instrumental work all round. >>
